摘要：Through the design of the Generator of the spillway tunnel, the safe operation efficiency of flood discharge tunnel with the level swirling flow is further improved. This paper takes the horizontal swirl spillway tunnel of Gongboxia Hydropower Station on the Yellow River as an example. First, the project hub facilities of the Gongboxia Hydropower Station are introduced. Moreover, the design of the gradient section and the spinning chamber section in the Generator is also studied. Based on the calculation scheme of structural mechanics, the internal force of the structure under various load combinations such as external water pressure and internal water pressure is calculated. According to Design Codes For Hydraulic Concrete Structure, the structural reinforcement is computed. These provide the basis for the design of the flood discharge tunnel with level swirling flow of large hydropower engineering facilities in Northwest China.
